Another show, another poster

The cast is assembled, and now the poster has been designed. I tend to like designing my own posters, it's something of a labour of love. Unfortunately I don't often have the time to spend on them that I'd like. But there's nothing like a deadline, and I had to get it sorted pretty quick so it could go to the printers so that the flyers were ready in time for Wild Duck, which opens three weeks today.

Anywho, drum roll please for the unveiling of the Attempts on Her Life poster:


What do you think? I had trouble finding an image that identified what is unidentifiable, so I decided to go for something that is sort of messy; remnants of a life that could tell various stories. I think I've encapsulated a fair amount of what I think the play is about, and I hope the bitsy nature of the image reflects the fragmented structure of the play.

Of course I'd have liked a couple more weeks maybe to refine it or improve the quality, but I have to leave it at that now and hope it does the trick.
